An Advance Demanded.

PITTsBURG, February THE execu-
tive board of miners, knights of Labor,
which has been investigating the
recent demand made by river miners
for an advance in the price of mining,
arrived at a decision tonight. The
board decides that the rate for the
fourth pool should be 2sI cents per
bushel and in the other three pools
2A cents. This is an advance of Il
cent on the pool, and Il cent in the
first and second pools. The award is
not satisfactory to either the miners or
their employers, and a continuation of
the strike is probable

The Effects of Mental Exhaustion.

Many diseases, especially those of the
nervous system, are the products of
daily renewed mental exhaustion.
Business avocations often involve an
amount Of mental wear and tear very
prejudicial to physical health, and the
professions, if arduously pursued, are
no less destructive to brain and nerve
tissue. 1t is one of the most import
ant attributes of Hostetter Stomach
Bitters, that 1T compensates for this
undue loss of tissue, and that it i'm.
parts new energy to the brain and
nerves. The rapidity with which it re-
news weakened mental energy and
physical Vitality is remarkable and
shows that its invigorating properties
are of the highest order Besides in
creasing vital stamina, and counteract-
ing the effects of mental exhaustion,
this potential medicine cures and pre-
vents fever and ague, rheumatism,
chronic dyspepsia and constipation,
kidney and uterine weakness and other
complaints. Physicians also recon-
mend it as a medicated stimulant and
remedy.
